Colonia, fundada por los portugueses, nuestra tía patria, dado la ascendencia que tenemos de ese país. Ahora, es cierto que Uruguay es un país relativamente lindo, aunque el menos agraciado de América en cuanto a belleza paisajística. Muy monótono y homogéneo, y para peor, casi todo alambrado. Digo, basta solo ver como es Guatemala, El Salvador, ni hablar Chile, Argentina, Colombia, para darse cuenta que en al reparto de belleza llegamos tarde, por decirlo de una manera sarcástica. Zafamos un poco con las playas oceánicas y del estuario.

[@vickyrodriguezbrum9960]

Hi! I love your style, but I have to tell you, be careful where you fly that dron. Most places are fine, but the villas or favelas are different. Uruguay is considerd the safest country in south america and one of the safest in latinoamerica next to Costa Rica, but every country has their own dangerous areas that are not to play arround. Even if the worst areas in Uruguay are small and not as dangerous as the ones in other countrys, they can still be dangerous, specially if they see you with expensive stuff. Do not show your dron like that in Brasil, unless you are in very turistic places. Other than that, like I say, I love your style! You will see beautiful but very quiet cost citys once you leave Montevideo, since is not summer. It can get boring if you dont prepare to the idea of very peaceful journey, but if you like that peace, you will enjoy it as uruguayans do haha welcome!

[@truthclaw5]

Had us nervous with those drone shots in Cerro lol. Seriously, especially in Montevideo, careful not to "show off" your camera and phone too much or they'll get snatched. Anyway, here we call pastries "bizcochos", I don't think you can go more than 5 blocks without running by a bakery. If you really liked the torta fritas (it's tradition to make them at home when it rains), next time try them with sugar or with dulce de leche. And be sure to stock up on alfajores, especially "Sierra de Minas", those are the best in my opinion. Oh, be mindful that when you get to Punta del Este, prices there will probably be higher than in Montevideo, it's a tourist trap in most areas. Personally, I like Piriapolis a lot more, it's a much more laid back tourist town with some beautiful scenery.

[@Fan_Girl-xd8wy]

That wasnt cerro tho

[@aquelpibe]

Loved your upbeat video. Colonia is the oldest town in Uruguay (founded by the Portuguese in 1680). You drove through the Old District early in the video; the rest of the city is fairly new. Built in 1909, the Plaza de Toros was meant to be a bullring, they were to have corridas de toros (bullfights) like in Spain. I am not sure it was ever used for its original purpose as bullfights were banned soon afterwards. It stayed empty and deteriorating for nearly a century until it was repurposed to host music shows and sport events. What you drove through coming into Montevideo is not a settlement, a "villa" (the local term is "asentamiento") i.e. irregular dwellings built on public or invaded land. Rather a working class neighbourhood with regular streets, and the houses made of standard materials. But they are dangerous because of drugs and gangs. Good thing that the old lady told you to leave fast. Some of what you filmed with the drone was indeed an asentamiento. Cheers.

[@mauriroper]

You are getting some things wrong... these arent all "villas", and not all houses are "asentamientos" or "cantegril" (despectively). Some are humble "barrios" thats quite a distinction and there's an honor and dignity in it, that fails to be captured. I believe you are well-intended and you are not to blame because there was little time for footage or getting to know it while under pressure by the dangerous of the unknown. Later the men going through trash aren't mostly "cartoneros" looking for cardboard, but most of them are mentally ill. Pasta base addicts, alcoholics, people kicked-off by the family for being violent or unruly. I appreciate you reaching this piece of world over here and seeing you enjoy the parts that you did like.

[@huveja9799]

It's true what you say, but it's not difficult for a foreigner to make that mistake if people from Pocitos or Punta Carretas is making the same mistake .. as for the "recicladores" (a euphemism for people searching the trash for something to eat or sell), I guess there is everything, people "hecha bosta" (local expression that literally equates the situation and the context with the manure) by drugs or mental problems, and people"hecha bosta" by poverty ..

[@de5letras1]

Error no tuvo ninguno. Creo que padeces de ignorancia fruto de uruguayitis crónica. No entendés la semántica y los conceptos. Conceptualmente no le erró en nada. Villa es lo mismo que barrio humilde, y era al concepto que él se refería.

[@huveja9799]

@@de5letras1 Supongo que todo el que es de Uruguay debe sufrir uruguayitis crónica, así como si sos de Australia debés sufrir Australiatis crónica, ni te hablo si sos de USA. No podés evitar el sesgo de la cultura donde te criastes, a menos que luego tengas un proceso de descondicionamiento bastante fuerte, lo cual es algo bastante excepcional. Respecto a la semántica de Villa, más concretamente Villa Miseria que luego se abrevió en Villa, es la misma semántica que acá tiene el término Cantegril (aunque ahora es más políticamente correcto referirse a ese tipo de aglomeración humana como "asentamiento"), en este caso, más que "humilde" (habría también que definir el término "humilde"), estaríamos hablando de características extremas negativas con respecto al resto de la sociedad, tanto a nivel económico como cultural. Se podría decir que tanto el barrio del Cerro como la Teja, serían barrios "humildes", pero dentro de la Teja, hay una zona conocida como Cachimba del Piojo (Heredia e Inclusa) que clarmente es un Cantegril. Dónde termina el Cantegril y comienza el barrio "humilde"?, difícil decirlo, ya que la transición es gradual. Vos te creés que el Australiano conoce la semántica de todo eso?, lo dudo mucho, básicamente todos entraron en la misma bolsa de cinturón periférico de gran ciudad que es miserable, es decir una Villa en Argentina, un Cantegril en Montevideo, el Bañado en Paraguay o una Favela en Brasil ..

We call villas "cantegril" or "cante" for short, but the correct name is "asentamientos" (literally translated to "settlement", short for "illegal settlement"). they started forming in the 90s and grew because of the 2001 crisis. back then, our main business partner was argentina so when they had a crisis in 2000 we suffered it as well. nowadays it's different, from that experience we started trading with other countries, now we export to china the most, then brazil, then europe. unfortunately cantes are established and though smaller than before, there is a lot more homeless people since 2020.. btw the colombian girls who sold you the torta fritas are awesome!
